Minister of Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari Wednesday announced a FASTag-based annual pass priced at Rs 3,000 for “hassle-free-highway travel”. He said the new system, exclusively for non-commercial private vehicles such as cars, jeeps, and vans, will address the “long-standing concerns” regarding toll plazas.
Gadkari said the FASTag-based passes will be effective from August 15 and valid for one year or 200 trips, whichever comes earlier.
